This is exactly why I faded on SG:U Incoming rage bait.. in 3.... 2.... 1.....

Oh my... Dallas folks have a new holy war. Both the Mavs AND the Stars seem to have locked in moving out of downtown and to the north end of town for the Mavs, and a northern suburb for the Stars. Urbanites are SUPER salty, but the population heat map bears out the logic :

Saw an interesting stat that if they were all adjusted for inflation Stargate would have clocked in as the second highest grossing Star Trek motion picture, and the highest grossing ST:TNG movie.

Man.... "Hot boy summer" has really went downhill. Unrelated for the DFW peeps...:

Yes, but just ask anybody in latin America or Africa.... it's because our dirt is....

Well... The problem was they didn't want a ground up reboot, but they also wanted something new and different enough to draw in new fans. Just the legacy fans weren't enough apparently. Question is how do you appeal to a "modern audience" without turning the hardcores wholly against you?

Also over time many people cycle out of allergies. When I was a wee Haus I had an allergy list a mile long. One of my Dr's as a child mentioned that every 7 years or so I should get retested, as your histamine system can change as you mature. Sure enough in my mid teens I suddenly stopped...

Just watched the first episode and am thoroughly enjoying it. The wife and I have now taken an approach that we'll find a show to watch and watch one episode a night, as to draw it out and avoid "The Show Hole" as much as we can. heh She mentioned during it how she didn't feel like she'd seen...

Irrational Exuberance Alert of the day (??) Watching Bloomberg for their close of trading day coverage and I hear..... "Iran risk on... Iran risk off... The honeybadger rally just don't care" The... Honeybadger... rally....

We must constantly degrade our life experiences to accommodate for the lowest common denominator, which unfortunately certain groups keep driving lower every.. single.. fucking.. year....

Glued? Mother of God..... Back when I cashed out some stuff for a few "serious house projects" I needed to tackle back last year top of that list of replacing the Federal Pacific panel that was still in play here at Chez Haus. I did not realize until last year how insane the issues on those...

I don't remember what thread I detailed it in... But I have a Frankenchair which laughs at time. I found a great chair in terms of cushion/support and now just keep replacing parts on it as needed (casters, gas tube, seat covers and covers for the arm rests) It was a Serta chair with legit...

If anybody in DFW finds a good solid broker let me know.. I'm also at the "have had the same insurance for years and I'm pretty sure I'm getting ripped off" juncture.
